When the white glowing knight's sword swept up Leo like the wind, the black hair on his forehead moved. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Everyone thought that the victory would be decided at this moment - the end of despising chivalry was to be defeated without any suspense.

However, instead of the sound of flesh and blood being sliced by the stirring wind, Mackna's swift sword deviated strangely from its intended trajectory and stabbed into the air.

The uncatchable afterimage flickered away, and the inevitable stab was dodged.

It's hard to believe, but it's true that Leo dodges Mike's stab at the most critical and unlikely moment.

He maintained the posture of drawing his sword, and stared at Leo blankly, full of incredulity.

The knights and Mike himself were stunned, they had never seen such a way to dodge the stab in their more than ten years of knighthood, it felt like a cat playing with a mouse.

How, exactly? What just happened? Everyone except Leo had a question in their hearts.

"What's the matter, it can't be scared, right?"

A faint laugh blew in the breeze, making the knights, especially Mike, feel extremely harsh.

Shame, anger, emotions were boiling, Mike felt his pride shattered, a distorted red appeared on his face, and he subconsciously released the magic power in his body.

Just now, he just kept his hand, and next time there will be no negligence, and one move can shatter this person's calmness. Mike gritted his teeth as pale blue magic surged across the surface of his body, and the knights around him let out exclamations.

"Oh my God, Captain Mack's going to get serious?!"

"That posture, is it—"

"You can't go wrong, that's our Strange Rock City's magic sword technique!"

It seems that every border city has its own magic sword technique. Taiyan City's magic sword skill "Moon Arc" is very similar to the [Small Arc Slash] of "Torrent Sword", maybe Qiyan City's magic sword skill will also have something to do with some knight skills.

Leo looked at Mike not far away with interest, his expression a little more serious.

When it comes to "Sword of the Riptide", even if you don't want to be serious, you have to get serious.

Mike aimed the tip of his sword at Leo, his body tensed up, like a bow full of strings, and the light blue magic surging through his body was ready to be unleashed.

Just by looking at the posture, no, as long as you look at the momentum, you can know what this magic sword technique is related to, he has used it too many times.

[Thrust], one of the knight's basic skills, is obviously a powerful skill that does not require charging, but when it comes to the hands of knights from another world, it becomes a charged move.

However, it is still not to be taken lightly, and perhaps because of the charging action, the power of this move is greater than the original. He thought so, and at the same time knew the strength of the [Thrust] skill.

"Hurry!"

Mike shouted angrily, and the pale blue magic on his body erupted, and the whole person was like a blue ball of fire, attacking Leo fiercely.

The reason why he shouted the name of the move was because of the characteristics of the magic sword technique itself: because it was an action evolved by the supreme god, shouting the name might inspire a certain amount of faith and increase the power.

The gradually rising temperature and momentum made the faces of the surrounding knights change greatly, and they couldn't help but feel a little sympathetic to Leo on the field.

The power of the magic sword technique is no joke, even if it is a higher-level warrior or mage, when facing the magic sword skill of a lower-level opponent, it must change color - in the case of the same level of strength, the power of the magic sword skill can only be resisted by the magic sword skill of the same level or above.

But an adventurer, will he have magic sword skills?

The middle-aged businessman looked at Leo, whose face was calm and motionless, and couldn't help but sweat for him.

Mike was fast, the scorching wind blowing through Leo's side, the flames swaying in his brown eyes. But what everyone didn't notice was that this time, Leo's forehead didn't move.

The blue flame streaks flickered, and the expanding flames centered in front of Leo spread wildly, drowning both men at the same time.

A strong roar erupted with the shock wave, smoke and dust rose with the rubble, and the stone brick floor below resounded with a mournful roar, trembling and shaking out terrible cracks, and the surrounding knights could even feel the earth tremble.

A figure suddenly broke through the smoke and rolled down not far from the blue sea of fire, covered in scorch marks and green smoke.

There was no doubt about the outcome of the battle, and the knights sighed that if Leo had been arrogant before, then this was his retribution.

"Wait, this guy is—"

A shout to Mike should have been heard, but a discordant voice rang out, and a sharp-eyed knight's eyes widened as he looked at the charred figure.

Everyone followed his gaze, and their breathing stopped for a moment.

Although the clothes were in shambles, it was vaguely clear that they were made of rich silk, especially the griffin logo on the neckline, which was unique to the knights.

It was not an adventurer who was knocked down without suspense, but their top boss, Mike, whose strength was comparable to that of a third-level warrior!

There was great silence, and everyone froze, turning their heads stiffly to look at the sea of blue fire that was slowly extinguishing.

The flames peeled off like petals, and the sparks dissipated with the smoke, revealing the hilt of an intact knight's sword, untouched, not even scorched.

As the smoke slowly cleared, everyone's eyes became more and more dull, as if they had seen the devil in the daytime.

"It's a little too much."

The faint voice was a little embarrassed, and Leo, who was unscathed, said helplessly.

He didn't expect that Mike would use his strongest magic sword skill to deal with him, because it was a move related to "Sword of the Torrent", he subconsciously opened the skill [Demon Shou Yan Spirit] attached to the artifact [Wang Yan Talisman], and the result was that the power of the shock alone stunned Mike, and in his opinion, the magic sword skill was more than a step worse than the real [Thrust] in terms of power.

A little disappointed, and a little embarrassed.

His right hand was still pinned behind him, his feet hadn't moved, and the ground he was on was the only place that hadn't been cracked.

The battle was over, but no one could cheer, their minds were full of doubts and shock, and there was a dead silence in the knight's training ground.

What happened in the final battle?

"Win! Win pretty! ”

Lindsay's little face was flushed, and she jumped and let out a crisp cry.

It has to be said that it was a beautiful battle, and the knights smiled wryly and also responded to Lindsay's call.

Although he was despised by Leo before, if he didn't even have the courage to admit defeat, it was equivalent to losing the honor of knighthood to him.

"Oh oh oh!"

One, two, five, all participated, and the cries of victory echoed here, and beneath the blue sky, the soft clouds shook for a while.

・・・

Because they didn't deliberately hide it, the Light Knights of Strange Rock City knew about Mike's defeat by the adventurer, which was incredible, and everyone wanted to meet the powerful adventurer.

The main palace of Qiyan City, a room somewhere.

Mike stared at the cup on the wooden table, unsure of what he was thinking, as the maid beside him was bandaging the wound on his right hand, which seemed to be broken due to the force of the shock.

"Teacher, he can't be using any magic props, right?"

The son of the city lord, who is also Mike's student, listened to what happened at this time, and said with a skeptical expression.

An unknown adventurer, even if he beats his teacher miserably, is a miracle. But if it is unharmed, it makes people suspicious.

"No, I'm too conceited, the world outside of Qiyan City is extremely vast, and it's normal to have such a strong person."

Mike's eyes flickered, and his left hand clenched involuntarily, and it was clear that this defeat had hit him hard.

"Isn't the Altai Chamber of Commerce going to form a team for that adventurer?"

After a moment of silence, Mike suddenly spoke up.

"You mean, stop—"

The son of the city lord's eyes narrowed slightly, and asked tentatively.

"That's why you haven't been able to learn the magic sword technique 'Swift', your thoughts are too messy, Derek."

Feeling Derek's ill intentions, Mike's expression suddenly became stern, which immediately made Derek scared.

"I'm sorry, I didn't understand it properly, so what do you mean, teacher?"

Derek scratched his head, he was most afraid of this sword teacher besides his city lord father.

"I'll temporarily resign from my position as the Light Knight Captain, become a mercenary, and join his team."

Mike's words are unquestionable, he is a man of all kinds.

The maid who bandaged her arm on the side also trembled twice in shock, while Derek opened his mouth wide and looked at the high-spirited Mike in front of him in a daze.

This incident is definitely more shocking than losing to an adventurer. Derek smiled wryly and thought that he could almost imagine his father's expression after seeing Mike's resignation letter.

An adventurer turned Qiyan City upside down, and the two major forces revolved around him.

He couldn't help but arouse a strong curiosity about the unknown adventurer.

・・・

Strange Rock City, Altai Chamber of Commerce.

It seems that it has been a long time since it has been so busy, and the originally deserted corridor is full of unaccustomed walking sounds.

The Altai Chamber of Commerce is constantly researching for nearby ruins and is also publishing suitable job postings to find the right team members for Leo's team.

They even began to contact the Imperial City's headquarters to see if there were any tricky tasks, or suitable team members, that could be assigned.

"Your tea."

The middle-aged merchant respectfully presented tea to Leo, which was nothing to him, and profit was the merchant's first goal.

He handed the tea to Lindsay, who smiled sweetly, his brown eyes full of emotion.

This scene made the middle-aged businessman sigh a little, a few days ago they were still trying their best to hunt down Lindsay, but now they have to serve tea and water.

Everything comes from the young people in front of you, who make Qiyan City surge.

After showing his strength to defeat Mike easily, he also captured the vision of all the knights in Strange Rock City, and realized Leo's value, and the middle-aged merchant immediately made a decision to sign a contract with him.

"As long as you complete three A-class missions, or one S-class mission, Lindsay and our Chamber of Commerce will have nothing to do with it, and we will keep the matter of the pagan alchemist secret for you."

The middle-aged businessman said with a smile on his face.

"yes, but let's wait until you form a team."

"It's a pleasure to work with."

Leo smiled slightly, confident.
